Safe Environment

FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM

A fundamental goal of the Catholic Church is to prevent future occurences of sexual abuse of children. Therefore, the Safe Environment Program offers detailed policies and procedures designed to protect children while they are in the care, custody, or control of any person working on behalf of the Church.

So, if you volunteer to work with children or youth at St. Brendan Church and School, you must fulfill these requirements:

Attend a Protecting God's Children class.

Have a background check with electronic fingerprinting, with results sent to the parish office.

Get photographed for your volunteer badge, which must be worn while volunteering.

Details on the volunteer process are outlined on these pages. For questions on this process, please email Penny Hansen or call her at 614.876.1272, ext. 224.
